HOW TO SELECT THE LOCATION OF DOORS IN A BUILDING

Location Of Doors:

The location of doors can affect the aesthetics and can change the entire looks (internal or external) of a house or building. So it is also necessary to select the right position of doors during the planning stage. The following points should be considered while deciding the location of doors in a building.

Air Circulation:

The doors should be provided on the opposite walls, facing each other to ensure adequate air circulation in a room.

Space & Privacy:

Considering the point of proper utilization of space and privacy, the door should be located near the corner of a room.

Number Of Doors:

Excellent utilization of space can be achieved by lowering the number of doors in a room, because a large number of doors occupy more area, creates an obstruction in circulation.

Utilization Of Light:

The door should be so located that no dark corner is left in the room and light and ventilation are evenly distributed.

Functional Requirements:

The location of doors must fulfill all the functional requirements of the room.
